Setting up Mobile Attendance

Introduction: Mobile attendance is a way for employees to download the app from the app store and use their phones to clock in according to the configured methods. There are 3 main methods for mobile attendance:

GPS Clocking: This method relies on GPS location on the phone compared to a set location within a radius allowed.

WiFi Clocking: This method relies on connecting to designated WiFi networks set up in the system.

QR Code Clocking: This method relies on scanning QR codes printed out.

Steps:

Step 1: Log in to the Web and go to the Avatar menu at the top right and select Settings.

Step 2: Go to the Attendance section, then select Mobile.

Name: You can name the attendance location, such as Office Name or Branch Name.

Address: This is the address used for attendance. You can enter the address and the system will suggest based on the addresses you enter. Or you can enter the location based on coordinates. If your attendance location is your current location, choose Get Current Location.

Radius: This is the radius allowed for attendance based on the address. It means attendance can be clocked within a radius you set.

Main Branch: This location applies to which main branch.

Sub-branch: This location can apply to other sub-branches.

Department: This location can apply to which department.

Attendance based on Wifi name: Employees only need to access the correct Wifi name, but there is a risk that employees may create Wifi hotspots on their phones with the same name as the Wifi used for attendance.

Attendance based on Wifi name and BSSID: When combining Wifi name and BSSID, it ensures that employees have to connect to the correct Wifi 100%. However, after a period of time, the BSSID of some routers may change and need to be reconfigured.
